Sam Rohrer, GOA and 9-9-9

“Gun Owners of America is the only no comprise gun lobby in Washington” – Ron Paul.
Just last week GOA sent out a newsletter to their Pennsylvania subscribers that in part said:
Dear Friend of the Second Amendment:
Gun Owners of America Political Victory Fund is proud to endorse Pennsylvania’s Sam Rohrer for U.S. Senate.
In a time when politicians in Washington have abused and grossly exceeded their constitutional limits, voters are looking for fighters who are not afraid to rein in the federal government and place it back under the constraints …

Steve Welch for US Senate?

And the plot thickens…Earlier this year the PA GOP made their official endorsement for who they would support financially and verbally and wanted you, the Pennsylvania voter, to support as well. The candidate they ended up endorsing was none other than entrepreneur Steve Welch.
This pick was largely influenced by the GOP’s hand-picked Governor Tom Corbett who said that Welch would bring a certain ‘geographic balance’ to the table along with an ‘incredible ability to build the party.’ Note that neither the Party nor the Governor made this selection based …

Ron Paul Brings Sexy Back

Choosing presidential candidates is sort of like dating. When you first meet someone they can seem wildly attractive, but the more you get to know them the more you start to find things you don’t like.
No self-respecting conservative is attracted to Mitt Romney. In the search for an anti-Romney, Republican voters once thought Newt Gingrich was hot, until they learned the very things they didn’t like about Romney—government run healthcare, TARP—were also supported by Gingrich. Similarly, some Republicans seem to think Rick Santorum has it going on, but the more …

How Rick Santorum Hurts Social Conservatism

The problem with Rick Santorum is not that he doesn’t stand for faith, life and traditional marriage. The problem is he thinks he can get a nation of 300 million people to stand with him. On the issue of gay marriage, Santorum recently told CNN: “I’ve just said I think this is a national issue, we can’t have 50 different marriage laws, and we have to have a consistency in what marriage is, and family is something. And we need to have a national discussion about it and develop a …

The Republican Mess

Senator Jim DeMint gave one of the most rousing speeches at this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference, warning Republicans that there can be no compromise with the Democrats. As usual, Sen. DeMint is right. Republicans cannot afford to compromise, quite literally, with any party or anyone who honestly believes that our government can spend one more cent or borrow one more dollar for one more minute.
But this also goes for Republicans.
We’ve heard a lot this week about the “Santorum surge” as the former Pennsylvania Senator rises in the polls to …

Conservatives for Socialism!

I have heard a number of self-proclaimed, ‘conservatives’ tell me that they could never vote for Mitt Romney because he’s a socialist (see RomneyCare). Many of them will tell me that as Tea Party activists they cannot support any candidates that support the expansion of socialism, even if they are Republicans! This is an admirable statement that goes hand in hand with the Tea Party proverb “vote them all out!” Sadly I have heard many of these same people tell me that Rick Santorum is the best pick for conservatives. …

Pennsylvanians will be paying more to shop online

Pennsylvania’s “conservative” Governor Tom Corbett (R) broke the news a few months ago that he wanted to start enforcing the law that online retailers collect taxes on purchases made by Pennsylvanians and return them to Harrisburg. This, Corbett claimed, would increase our revenue by getting the money that was “owed” and help us with our government funding issues. Corbett also intimated that it might help boost struggling brick-and-mortars in the commonwealth because the tax collection would discourage online purchases. So, starting September 1, 2012, expect all of your online …
